Standing with 8-Year-Old RJ in His Fight Against Cancer

Donation protected
Prayers and Strength to help RJ fight cancer!!!!
Thank you for taking a moment to read about 8 yr old RJ (Roger James) and his family.
RJ is 1 of 7 children. He is 8 yrs old and he is undergoing a series of testing, procedures and began urgent chemotherapy treatment for cancer 2/14/26.
Rj was diagnosed with osteosarcoma 2 weeks ago. In those 2 weeks we have learned it has traveled through his body and it is aggressive. The chemo and radiation had to start asap due to it getting too close to his spine which can cause paralysis.
This has impacted RJ greatly and affecting him daily. His parent's are struggling to care for the children at home and be at the hospital for RJ. RJ has spent the last 2 weeks in the hospital.
Donations would allow RJs family to stay close to the hospital, transportation, parking fees, meals and additional cost to help watch the other grade school children at home.

We will provide updates as the treatments and care changes as well as needs arise. We appreciate all the prayers concerns and understand many want to reach out. Please understand this is incredibly hard on the family and his parents if you want to reach out you can reach out to his sisters.

We thank you with all our hearts for your prayers, generosity, kindness and support. If you are unable to donate, please consider other ways of helping such as helping with a ride, gas, sharing this page and please keep RJ and his family in your thoughts and prayers.
Together we can help RJ fight their and give his family hope, comfort and strength during this difficult time.

Sincerely,
Rj’s aunties
